Mine is a tie between Red Dead Redemption and Call of Juarez: Bound in blood, they're both so fun. Slightly off topic but CoJ: The Cartel is on amazon for less than a £5, is it really as bad as the reviews say it is. Is it worth buying even on the cheap?

Stranger's Wrath, man. I think this finally got released on PC, too. It's a relatively mechanically unique FPS game, the character controls interestingly, and the "gun" (basically a crossbow you fire animals out of) has some interesting elements I'm surprised other FPS games haven't copied.

It's not exactly a setting that's been used a whole lot. But yeah, Red Dead Redemption is my favorite. It's one of my favorite games period, though. I completed a second playthrough just a month ago, and did a ton of the extra challenges (which are actually pretty fun).

All of my favourites, Red Dead Redemption, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, and Fallout: New Vegas, have already been said. So I guess I'll have to say them again, because those three are indeed the best Wild West-themed games I've played.

Red Dead Redemption is the best. No point in arguing otherwise. CoJ: Bound in Blood is also an awesome game. A bit short, but gunfights are spectacular. And I loved how you still had the crosshair even when you zoomed in. For some reason it was a lot more immersive than the realistic iron sights in modern shooters. So immersive in fact that one time I almost forgot that I was actually playing a game. Amazing.

Remember GUN? That was a fun free roaming western. A short game but it had a good story, some very fun gameplay elements and great voice actors. Music was also good. Too bad they rushed the entire game for Xbox 360 release. It could have been so much more.
